Empowering our Youth
On February 16th,
2017, selected students from sixth, seventh, and eighth grade
participated in an empowerment presentation presented by Mr. Adam
Herndon, the great great nephew of the late Mr. Alonzo Herndon.
Alonzo Herndon, a former slave, who was a prominent black pioneer during
the early 1900’s, became the first black millionaire in the city of
Atlanta. Adam Herndon shared with the students a brief history lesson
regarding his late uncle’s obstacles, his accomplishments and how he was
persistent in achieving his dreams of becoming a successful black male
in America. Mr. Adam Herndon imparted knowledge relevant to our
students’ abilities which inspired them to strive to be the “blue lion”,
which represents the leader, in the pack.
